hi Max,
i'm sorry if you took my question about use of white teflon for propane and
butane, personaly. This wasn't my intention, but since i didn't know what
the problem could be and since you brought it up I wanted to learn why. I
hope i didn't hurt anybody's feeling on that.
Also, does "resolves" means that the teflon tape would brake or degrade
(sorry, I'm not a native speaker!;-) ). If so, i'd better get some more
info
because we all use ti a lot around here but we never had any remarks from
the risk and Hazard people. I'll check.
take care

Yvan,
Don't quote me on this:I had to fix the gas line to our oven because of a
leak a year ago.I had an Inspector from our gas supplier in the house to
find the leak.He told me that regular white teflon tape resolves when used
with gases.You can get the yellow tape at any Home cheapo or Lowes.
I rather be save then sorry.
Max
